:up: read my post and the next few down :down:

This actually posts to the forum, but it does not redirect to the thank you article.Ã,  I get a 404 error for index.php?page=11.

i've manged this on another way:
i made anyway a costum action for the formular with a template.

in the code i added after:

Code Select Expand

if ($enable_post)
Ã,  Ã,  Ã,  Ã,  createPost($msgOptions, $topicOptions, $posterOptions);

this:

Code Select Expand


echo
'
<br />
<p align="center">
BlaBlaBla, '.$_POST['name'].'.
<br />
Ã,  Ã,  Ã,  Ã,  Ã,  Ã,  Ã,  Ã,  Ã,  Ã,  Ã, Ã,  BlaBlaBla
<br />
THX u 4 filling out the apllication BlaBla
</p>
';
RETURN;

So it's "all in one"
Works nice for me

i needed to this that way, coz the method with remember the <textarea> input dont works that way like the <input> (with the value, needed to do else). after i corrected this, the article "messed up up" then. postet this time ago....
but so it works like a charme

[dapoppet]

Thanks so much for the replies.  I got it to work!

[mfKG]

does perhaps someone know, how i get the Post ID of the new created Post?
coz i wanna redirect after the "Thx u page" to his application-post.

[Ryushi32]

I was wondering how to create a poll in the post with the application

[iowamf]

I was interested in the code that posts the output of a PHP form into the forum - works! Thanks ...

One issue -> I changed the $board_id to a highly restricted board and found that this script could post into that board (even though the user filling out the form cannot access that board).  I don't consider this a bug - I think it is a feature - but it did surprise me that this would work. 

If someone cares to explain why this script allows a user to post into a board they do not have access to - I would love to hear the answer.

PS - even a guest can post to restricted boards with this form.

[iowamf]

btw, the script assumes SMF is installed in the root directory.
If you installed SMF in a subdirectory, you have to change a couple lines of code that reference the path.

thats simple, isnt it.....u take the function "createPost", which creates just the Post. But u dont check if the user have the right to Post in this Board(s) ^^ that u need to do before, if u want....

Any ideas?

[jacortina]

Try a require_once for Sources/Subs-Post.php perhaps (that's where that function is defined)?
